## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability api-lastlookdata-com-ac111b45
```

Example prompt: What is the current EFFR (Effective Federal Funds Rate) right now? Pull the latest value from FRED.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need the single most recent data point for a specific FRED economic series — ideal for real-time dashboards, rate checks, policy monitoring, or any task requiring the current value without historical context. Prefer over the date-specific or historical endpoints when only the latest reading is needed.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported FRED series ID returns an error — only the 24 enumerated IDs (DGS30, DGS10, FEDFUNDS, EFFR, IORB, CPIAUCSL, UNRATE, GDP, etc.) are accepted
- Missing required 'id' query parameter returns a 400-level error
- Payment failure (x402) if USDC micropayment of $0.01 is not provided
- Series temporarily unavailable if FRED has not yet published a new observation (data may lag by days or weeks depending on series)

## How this service works

LastLook Data — most recent value for any supported FRED series. Use ?id=IORB, ?id=EFFR, ?id=MORTGAGE30US, ?id=FEDFUNDS, ?id=DGS10, etc.

## Output

Returns the most recent observed value for the requested FRED series, including the series ID, the data value, and the observation date on which that value was recorded.
